Ce que veulent les hommes

This film has a really cool and interesting concept but The story and screenplay by seems to be the real culprit of the film. It's unnecessarily vulgar and crass. The performances are over-the-top: Henson is a talented actress but she needs to start picking her future projects carefully. She tries to be funny, but it doesn't work. It's disappointing as she can do so much better than this. There are also two of the most annoying characters I'll probably see all year. The psychic known as Sister and the father of a top basketball prospect Joe 'Dolla' Barry are cringey. This film even tries (and fails) to shoehorn in a romance between Ali and a barman called Will. Overall, What men wants is a sad excuse for comedy, I wouldn't recommend.

Honestly this was rubbish

I can't think of one redeeming feature of it ?

The script was awful full of stereotypes and cliches . Full of thinly disguised racism , homophobia , sexism and misogyny

This was no female version of Jerry McGuire yet it could have been - it could have been a film about female empowerment against a backdrop of male dominated sports agencies .

The sex scenes were embarrassing and diabolical . There was little of any humour and as soon as she received her inevitable knock on the head you wished you'd also been knocked out and woke up in a different film !

If this was television , netflix or Prime you'd stop it or switch channels - unfortunately it's cinema so you feel compelled to stay to the end , sadly I couldn't I tried but in the end I had to walk out . I tried to stay till the end but it was just so flat .

It's so sad that films like this get distributed when there are so many other worthy films out there that never the exposure .

You have been warned !

Rubbish 2/10 Pad.A

You already know what you are in for, at least sort of., just by reading the synopsis, but this is a funny movie with a great cast that doesn't let you down. Taraji is a wonderful actress who always delivers. This is not gonna be Oscar material, but it makes for a thoroughly enjoyable comedy with plenty of refreshing moments.

Love Taraji and some of the other actors in this movie and wanted to like it. But I walk away thinking this movie is on the bad side of mediocre. Like something you would watch in the middle of the night and you had nothing but basic cable to watch.

The scrip comes off as awkward frequently throughout the movie. Several bizzare lines/scenes that just make you say "wtf" out loud. I wonder what sort of stuff was left on the cutting room floor if this is the stuff that made the movie.

There really isn't much here to draw you in. Most of the humor is jammed in just for the sake of having it.

I can appreciate doing something different with the source material, but this is basically the same exact movie with more sophomoric humor than the original. Any charm that the original had was lost with this script.

I see a lot of bomb reviews, and I get this is no Oscar Winner. But I laughed hysterically many times. It was precisely what I expected. There were plenty of funny moments, lessons learned and a little romance. Give it a chance. You may like it.
